Subject: Checkpoint/Restart Vulnerability on IRIX
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

SGI Security Advisory
Title : Checkpoint/Restart Vulnerability
Number : 20030802-01-P
Date : August 14, 2003
Reference : CVE CAN-2003-0679
Reference : SGI BUG 894920
Fixed in : IRIX 6.5.22 or patches 5264 through 5269

- -----------------------
- --- Issue Specifics ---
- -----------------------
It has been reported that the checkpoint/restart (cpr) system has a security
vulnerability whereby normal users can truncate or overwrite certain files
for which they do not have appropriate permissions.
A local account on the system would be required to exploit this vulnerability.
The vulnerability exists within the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of the libcpr
library and therefore binaries that load that library may exhibit the
vulnerability.
SGI has investigated the issue and recommends the following steps for
neutralizing the exposure. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that these measures be
implemented on ALL vulnerable SGI systems.
These issues have been corrected with patches and in future releases of IRIX.
- --------------
- --- Impact ---
- --------------
The 32 bit versions of libcpr are installed by default on IRIX 6.5 systems
as part of the optional eoe.sw.cpr package. The 64 bit version is part of
the optional eoe.sw64.lib package which is installed by default on 64 bit
systems.
To determine the version of IRIX you are running, execute the following
command:
# /bin/uname -R
That will return a result similar to the following:
# 6.5 6.5.19f
The first number ("6.5") is the release name, the second ("6.5.16f" in this
case) is the extended release name. The extended release name is the
"version" we refer to throughout this document.
To see if the 32 bit versions of the libcpr library are installed, execute
the following command:
% versions eoe.sw.cpr
I = Installed, R = Removed
Name Date Description
I eoe 05/18/2003 IRIX Execution Environment, 6.5.20f
I eoe.sw 05/18/2003 IRIX Execution Environment Software
I eoe.sw.cpr 05/18/2003 SGI Checkpoint-Restart Software
To check for the 64 bit versions:
% versions eoe.sw64.lib
I = Installed, R = Removed
Name Date Description
I eoe 05/18/2003 IRIX Execution Environment, 6.5.20f
I eoe.sw64 05/18/2003 EOE 64bit Libraries
I eoe.sw64.lib 05/18/2003 IRIX 64bit Libraries
If the output is similar to the above, then libcpr is installed and the
system may be vulnerable.
- ----------------------------
- --- Temporary Workaround ---
- ----------------------------
SGI understands that there are times when upgrading the operating system or
installing patches are inconvenient or not possible. In those instances, we
recommend the following workaround:
Remove the checkpoint / restart system by doing "versions remove eoe.sw.cpr"
If the eoe.sw64.lib package is installed, it should be removed with
"versions remove eoe.sw64.lib"
Of course after doing that, cpr services will no longer be available.
- ----------------
- --- Solution ---
- ----------------
SGI has provided a series of patches for these vulnerabilities. Our
recommendation is to upgrade to IRIX 6.5.22 (when available), or install the
appropriate patch.
